(...) Thanks! The Lionfish is still being worked on, and I see your point about the openess behind the head. A lot of that space is made for allowing all of the parts to hinge, although there is a place where I can fill the space in. The blockiness (...)

(...) Ooh, very cool, Joe. Very interesting solution to a tough-to do creature. I like the cockpit, altough I would have to agree that I think the main body is a little too blocky, and seems kind of 'open' right at the behind the head. Also, the (...)

(...) Nice work Joe, on a good idea. I think that the dorsal fin should be made in the same way as the side fins, though - with some sort of SNOT to turn the studs on their sides to do it. That would nicely complete the cool "spreading spines" (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-03, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.space, FTX)

I'm very interested to hear what this craft does. Is this a defensive craft? Does it have weapons? Is the distortion field part of the sphere of communication? This Sea Monkey business really is taking on a life of its own. Funny to think its only (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-03, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.space, FTX)

I do have a question/comment and a criticism. First, off the (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-03, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.space, FTX)

While Ogel wouldn't mind having this, I tend to think that this might be cool for the Sea Monkeys for a land invasion craft...with appropriate refinements:) Joe Meno (21 years ago, 5-Jun-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)

Joe, (...) I was kinda surprised also when I fitted the canopy on the quarter domes that it gave the sleek look that I wanted. I see what you mean about the horshoe crab appearance from the top view. Maybe with some refinements such as weaponry (...) (21 years ago, 3-Jun-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)

And it does have an aquatic look about (tho to me it reminds me of a horseshoe crab), or even a retro look. And I want to see the bottom too:) Good job! (...)
